Oh September! Photography is Booming!!!

Oh September! What a month for photography. I survived and thrived, I’m thrilled to report. Thanks to friends, family and fans “All She Wrote” has sold nearly one hundred copies. The reviews have been very positive. Thank you for supporting my work folks. I knew my baby wasn’t ugly. It can be difficult putting your work out for everyone to critique. Maybe that’s why it took ten years to complete the process.

My art world has also exploded this year. I’m made many new contacts and have been invited to participate in several art shows. Friends Helping Friends and Art House happened within a week of each other and I snuck in a trip to Southeastern Oklahoma during that time. I took my grandson along for the ride to visit my nephews and great-nephew. All my favorite boys in one place. What a treat for me. It was an honor to sign books for family and friends down there.

Photography hasn’t been slow either. During that visit I did an iPhone photo shoot of Braylen, my great-nephew. I became utterly smitten with him. I had fun editing these. What a sugar pie.

The Baker’s A Day in the Life shoot, is in the bag as well. I find myself getting more and more creative in editing. Kris Baker and Crystal Baker are fun to work with. Here are a few of my favorites.

Vicki’s Surprise 80th Birthday party was loads of fun.  Ann Hadrava gathered dozens of friends and family to celebrate her amazing mom’s special day. What a group of ladies. It was an honor to be there and to record such an event. I’ve asked Vicki for an interview and photo shoot for a new project I’m starting soon.

Tomorrow I have a wedding shoot with Shelley and Chad and their families. I’m very excited to be a part of their special day.
